ESCAMA TABLES
ALFIL (MORTAR AND PESTLE)
The mortar and pestle are objects inspired in the Colombian culture. They can be used to grind or crush spices, seeds or substances to be consumed. The product is designed to be durable due to its special resin and nonporous composition. This kitchen utensil has a nonstick surface and it also repels water.
The Colombian culture is a mixture of five regions, with more than ten different cultures. This object gathers features of our pre-Columbian culture, which with a Western influence, proposes a piece of modern design. Alfil is not only a kitchen implement but also a piece of Colombian design that evokes with its form and concept our country.
Historically the sea, the water and its creatures have had the ability to teach us about natures beauty, while inspiring epic stories of adventure around the world. The sea speaks of greatness, rivers of purity and reefs of color and life; that’s why
we have turned to the inhabitants of the sea, the mangroves and our direct connection with nature, in search of details that can serve as sources of inspiration.
